The race to find an effective AIDS vaccine will get a 拢14 million boost
from the British government. The donation is the first major government grant to
the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative, a nonprofit organisation set up in
1996 and based in New York. 鈥淭his will serve as a powerful catalyst to our
efforts and will help enlist other governments in this cause,鈥� says IAVI
president Seth Berkley. Clinical tests on a vaccine developed jointly by Oxford
University and the University of Nairobi will start in Britain and Africa next
year.
